I would suggest the following strategies/approach for a startup online marketing.
1. Content marketing is the #1 priority for online marketing.

2. Choose the right social media channel.

You can create LinkedIn/Facebook group for sharing your content and add related audience to it.
3. Use image and video wherever applicable to your post.
If your article has numbers or demographics, then you may also use infographics. There are more chances of getting leads/hits if you use image-based contents. Some of the tools which you can use for developing graphics are Picmonkey, Canva, Indesign by Adobe, etc.
4. Make your content mobile friendly.
There are approximately 2 billion people in the world using smartphones. Hence it is essential that your website and content is mobile friendly.
5. Make your content creative and straightforward.
Keep the title simple and strong. You can analyze the strength of your content title by using headline-analyzer.
6. Retarget your audience through posts and ads.

7. Search engine and Social signaling are very interconnected and directly proportional.
More is your content sharing; better is your search engine rank SERP. Hence the more interactive is your content, the better chance of it getting shared on social media. Finally helping your google rank to improve.
